I just put a 2002 kawasaki zx6r engine in my 1998 frame. I rode it and it seems like its faster. If anyone wants info on how I did it let me know. Its not hard but theres wiring involved.

congrats on the engine swap....

 

to answer your title question...yes

 

How much more?

 

Was the swap hard to do?
What about swapping from a zzr600 06 to a 2000 zx6r

 

The 1998 ZX-6R had 92 bhp - Link with Dyno chart

The 2002 ZX-6R had 96.2 bhp - Link with Dyno chart

It doesn't seem like much but the 02 has a much broader torque curve and the power comes on much sooner with the newly designed ram-air.

Congrats on the swap !

 

According to Haynes the '98 has 100 bhp and the '02 has 109.5bhp.

 

I gaurantee that they are taking about hp at the crank and not at the rear tire. Motorcycles do not lose much hp through the transmission. No one has a engine dyno, so they are probrably just qouting the manufacturer. I would trust the dyno's, but as a reference between the two bikes and not a base number hp.

 

I'm sure you are correct. I wasn't trying to contradict, just putting my 2 cents in.

 

It's all Good ! [sm=icon_cheers.gif]
